As an artist
Many artists and festival goers alike consider this one of the region's-if not the state's-premiere art fairs.
Exhibition spaces are situated beside a paved path, allowing artists to unload work right where they exhibit. During show hours, you get the support of volunteers who supply everything from water to "booth-sitting" to a little friendly humor. And you're invited to join us for an artist and volunteer dinner, a tradition that's fostered friendships over the course of decades.
Accessibility
The set-up at the art fair is extremely convenient allowing artists to park directly behind their tent. Artists who would otherwise not be able to participate because of the demands of hauling and set up are accommodated by this arrangement.
Awards
This is a juried event with more than $1,300 in annual show awards.
